Mostly done with tweaking my app for displaying any sort of remote data anywhere on your phone.

Now, on to my least favorite part - prepping all the launch materials 😫

Hoping to get it ready for preorder soon! 🤞

Made a simple "how-to" screen today. A few more finishing touches and it will be ready enough to ship (and get real-world feedback of what I didn't think to add yet 😅)

Now to decide, if I want to try the preorder route 🤔

I wanted to have some dynamic web data in a widget on my home screen.

My first thought was to build a bespoke app for a specific rest api just for myself.

But wouldn't it be nicer to have an app that can take any URL and make it fit different types of widgets easily.

From JSON, XML, images - anything one could want to have a "realtime" dashboard on the phone.

First prototype already working 🥳

Would anyone else find something like this useful?

Does anyone actually use widgets on their iPhone/iPad? I find them a distraction at best. They also use up valuable space that could be used for app icons that I actually use!
